Soul City Launch Party

Thursday Night, July 23 Soul City Church gave a sneak peak to friends, supporters, and partners of this blog, SoulCityChurch.com, and the BE campaign. It was an incredible party and an incredible night.

We shared our story of how God invited us into this season of faith, vision, dependence, and sacrifice. We share the Vision of Soul City Church. We talked about what God is doing at Soul City right now as well as what we sense God is inviting us into next. We also spent time praying, thanking God, and dreaming about what’s next for our lives and for this church. It was the perfect way to make this little dream we’ve had for years become a full fledged reality.

We are so grateful for this incredible group of friends (and the many more who couldn’t be there). While some of them may never regularly attend Soul City Church, EACH of them is already a part of it.

You can experience some of the night HERE.

So very exciting! Thank you for sharing your journey. My husband and I have just decided to respond to our own calling to plant a church.

We’re just getting our feet wet in the forming and planning – but were very excited to find your site and blog through LOS – as it’s confirmed some of those preliminary thoughts and plans and inspired us even further.

We are only a bit north in Green Bay Wi and look forward to following your story and hopefully visiting as you launch.

Our prayers are with you!

Came across your church, your mission, your dream, through a tweet from Los. So love where your hearts are at. Praying you and God partner with Chicago to do some damage for Jesus. Excited to see what God has in store for you and the people whose lives will be transformed. I’ll keep following the story.

Hi Guys
Just came across this in twitter. I am currently looking into modern expression of church, and especially the impact of technology and web 2.0 on how we do church. I like your emphasis on Jesus, but on how that is expressed through an on-line presence.

I will keep following you
